Thanks Philip - obviously it is more complicated than just adding a line in the script.

I cannot get your changes to work on their own in Script Debugger (after removing or adapting the FileMaker parts) and I cannot incorporate them into my script, which I should have provided completely in the first place:

property subf_names : {"00 Folder", "01 Folder", "02 Folder", "03 Folder", "04 Folder", "05 Folder", "06 Folder", "07 Folder",“08 Folder”}

set TNumber to cell "TNumber" of current record

set MonthDate to cell "MonthDate" of current record

set RecRef to cell "RecRef" of current record

set Ref_id to TNumber & " " & RecRef

set temp_name to Ref_id

set temp_disc to Ref_id

set theAlias to alias "MyMac:Work"

tell application "Finder"

set main_folder to (make new folder at theAlias with properties {name:temp_name}) as alias

repeat with this_name in subf_names

set temp_name to this_name

make new folder at main_folder with properties {name:temp_name}

end repeat

end tell

property subf_names : {"01 Folder", "02 Folder", "03 Folder", "04
Folder", "05 Folder", "06 Folder", "07 Folder"}

but it doesn't if I try (various attempts) to add subfolders to 03 and
06. Do I need to add an extra line(s) after this specifying the two main
folders?

property subs : {"01 Folder", "02 Folder", "03 Folder", "04 Folder", "05 Folder", "06 Folder", "07 Folder"}

set end of subs to "08 Folder"

subs

--> {"01 Folder", "02 Folder", "03 Folder", "04 Folder", "05 Folder", "06 Folder", "07 Folder", "08 Folder"}

repeat with i from 1 to count of subs

set s to item i of subs

if (s is "03 Folder") then

set item i of subs to {s, {"03.1 Folder", "03.2 Folder"}}

else if (s is "06 Folder") then

set item i of subs to {s, "06.1 Folder", "06.2 Folder"}

end if

end repeat

subs

--> {"01 Folder", "02 Folder", {"03 Folder", {"03.1 Folder", "03.2 Folder"}}, "04 Folder", "05 Folder", {"06 Folder", "06.1 Folder", "06.2 Folder"}, "07 Folder", "08 Folder"}

set item 7 of subs to {item 7 of subs, {"07.1 Folder", "07.2 Folder"}}

subs

-- {"01 Folder", "02 Folder", {"03 Folder", {"03.1 Folder", "03.2 Folder"}}, "04 Folder", "05 Folder", {"06 Folder", "06.1 Folder", "06.2 Folder"}, {"07 Folder", {"07.1 Folder", "07.2 Folder"}}, "08 Folder"}
